What was the Savatage setlist?

[wayland smithers]

Ok I gotta know what the setlist was? Who was on bass? Did Jon Oliva sing for the whole show? Were any Zak songs played?

 

[SavaHexe]

Kevin Rothney was on bass.
Since I wasn't there myself I could only give you the previously planned setlist.......I'd rather wait till someone answers, who was there. Probably they made changes due to Zak not being there. All I know is that Chris Caffery was supposed to sing two songs. Can't wait either to hear all the gory details about the Savatage and the JOP performance!

 

[SinsAndShadows]

I don't really remember the proper order for the songs, or every single song played. The most recent song they did was Edge of Thorns (with Chris on vocals). He also did Power of the Night as the first song of the encore.

They also played:
City Beneath the Surface
Sirens
The Dungeons are Calling
Hyde (from Fight for the Rock)
Hall of the Mountain King (last song of the night)
Gutter Ballet
Thorazine Shuffle
When the Crowds are Gone
Jesus Saves
Tonight He Grins Again
Somewhere in Time
Believe

and I think one or two others I can't remember.

And, Oliva sounded GREAT. I was one of the ones thinking his voice was completely blown out, but I tell you I heard vocals that I never thought I'd hear again. The mountain king is back!

Wow, that is an amazing setlist. Anyone who witnessed that is very lucky.

 

[Creeps]

plus he did little medlies a couple times just him on the piano

 

[Metalmilitia2000]

He should do stand up comedy too. That man is a riot!

Thanks for the info. My wife got completely wasted and was passed out through Kamelot. I had to take her back to the hotel and missed the entire WoMD set.

I would've gone back, but she was drunk enough that I was really worried.

Oh well. We had fun on Saturday.

 

[jaimek]

it. kicked. ASS! I was so freakin' happy to see Steve Wacholz. I saw Jon with C2C last year and Chris with TSO, but both of them AND Doctor Killdrums on on stage just brought me all kinds of fangirly goodness.

 

[TheWhisper]

All I know is that Chris Caffery was supposed to sing two songs.

Chris sang Edge of Thorns & Power of the Night...and did a damn fine fine job on both, I might add. Savathing was the highlight of the weekend for me, no doubt. And it was great to see Doc back on the throne(as it were), he played like a madman...just like old times.

Actually, they only did a little of When the Crowds are Gone, but with the portion in Believe, it was half the song in total, unless my memory is really going.

He did When the Crowds are Gone in the medley at the very beginning, then did Believe in full later on.

Right, but they never did the entire song. Didn't they do a verse of 'Mentally Yours' as well?

Did anyone happen to tape that show?? If so, let me know. I was there, right in front of Jon. Is there gonna be an official ProgPower DVD or something??

Thanks,
Chris

Yeah - Jon played the first of Mentally Yours with just a piano. He didn't start the heavy part. I agree - that was a special show!!
